Run Weekends Reviews 105

Amazing experience. The togetherness and friendships were made so quickly, with plenty of time spent during dinner, in the evenings and running/hiking. The RW were amazing - we were made to feel welcome from the start, and were made to all feel comfortable with the mantra that we are together with the running and there is nobody left behind. They were attentive, caring and great fun to be around. It was the perfect weekend of leisure and pleasure. If you’re looking for a weekend to meet new people, discover some beautiful views and landscapes, with everything taken care of, I cannot recommend this enough.

Brilliant routes, first-class accommodation, and the friendliest, most welcoming team you could ask for. The running itself was amazing — beautiful, scenic routes that made every mile a memory banker. We giggled so much all weekend; it truly was the perfect escape. We loved it last year and came back for more, and it was every bit as fantastic. A fab crew, great energy, and nonstop fun. We’ll definitely be rebooking!

Recently came back from the New Forest.
Was amazing retreat weekender. Nick and the team was amazing. Would recommend to anyone who want a weekend away before Christmas.
Hopefully book it again next week

Very organised and well thought out. Every runner was considered before going out on each run.

The long runs were split out in manageable sections with fuel stops.

This was my first Run Weekend, it definitely won’t be my last.

The Run Weekends team were very encouraging and positive people.

Some experiences are fun in the moment, while others you only appreciate afterwards — Run Weekends is both. The Kosovo trip was amazing. Nick and the team make you feel like part of their running family for the weekend. Would recommend to anyone looking to meet like-minded people on some scenic trails. Already looking forward to the next one.

I’ve just returned from another incredible adventure with Run Weekends, this time exploring Kosovo and Albania. From the moment you meet the team, everything is seamlessly planned so you can just relax and enjoy yourself. These trips are such a uniqued way to discover new countries—combining running, exploring, food, and connecting with great people.

Huge thanks to Nick, Michael, Bob, and Veton for making this experience so unforgettable. The team went out of their way to make sure everyone was happy, and they really do take care of every detail. Plus, they make sure the trip works for all running abilities.

If you’re thinking of booking one of their trips—do it! You won’t regret it. I honestly can’t recommend Run Weekends enough… now the hardest part is deciding which one to book next!

I went on the Kosovo Run Weekend and thoroughly enjoyed. If you are a slow runner (like me), don’t be put off signing up. It’s really not about pace and the team will support you all the way. Thank you RW for a fabulous adventure.

I had an unforgettable experience on the running weekend in the French Alps. What was an incredibly tough challenge was made enjoyable, safe, and inspiring thanks to the amazing team of coaches.
Their professionalism was outstanding from start to finish. They made sure we felt safe and supported at all times, no matter our level. Their encouragement, expert guidance, and great energy kept us going even on the toughest climbs. On top of that, they were just so much fun to be around, turning hard runs into genuinely enjoyable adventures.
The group of people taking part were also amazing, so friendly, positive, and supportive. It really felt like a team effort, and this made the whole experience even more special. If you're looking for a mix of stunning trails, expert coaching, and a great atmosphere, I couldn't recommend this more. Huge thanks to the whole team for an incredible trip.

Just back from an amazing weekend in the French alps with run weekends. This trip was fantastic from start to finish. The scenery, the hotel, the people, all five star. A big thank you to Nick, Mark, Bob and Heidi for organising an incredible experience and for looking after us so well.

If you’re looking for a running retreat that combines adventure, breathtaking scenery, luxury accommodation and the perfect mix of challenge and fun Run Weekends in the French Alps is for you! Every day brought a new route, from peaceful forest trails to high mountain ridges with views that stop you in your tracks. I was in awe everyday. The organisation was flawless, the group atmosphere was incredible, and the support made even the hardest climbs feel achievable - especially for my first proper trail run.

It’s more than just a running trip, it’s the kind of experience that leaves a mark on you, happier, and already counting down to the next one.

Thank so much Nick, Mark, Heidi and Bob for creating something truly special. I will 100% be back!

Epic weekend. Nick, Mark, Heidi and Bob are a dream team creating good vibes the whole weekend. Stunning scenery and top people. Plus a lovely hot tub FTW to help the quads feel normal again!

Wonderfully organised run weekend. Positive and kind leadership with marked attention to detail with regards to routes and group ability/ running experience. Excellent mixture of catering, campfire cooking and cafe and restaurant experiences were all excellent. All RW staff were exceptional throughout the weekend, supportive to runners and they could not do enough to provide a wonderful experience for all the participants.

It was my first trip with Run Weekends and I was not disappointed.
From the moment we met Nick and his wonderful support team, we didn't have to think about anything other than enjoying ourselves and having a great time - nothing was too much trouble for them. We were treated to superb running along the spectacular Cornish coast, expertly guided by Henry with support from the rest of the team.
We were incredibly well fed with snacks and meals from local businesses combined with delicious home cooked food and there was always plenty of drinks to choose from.
We swam in the sea and enjoyed getting to know each other, chatting and playing mind games around the camp fire; we also found the energy for frisbee throwing and rounders - and everyone joined in.
It really was a fabulous weekend and I cannot recommend Run Weekends highly enough - I will definitely be back for more.

This was more than just a running trip. It was four days of connection, challenge, and unforgettable landscapes. From the moment I arrived, the crew made me feel completely welcomed and supported. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, from the logistics to the food to the small moments of encouragement when legs were tired and spirits needed lifting. I honestly cannot recommend Run Weekend enough.

The route itself was stunning: beaches, dunes, coastal cliffs, tiny villages, and the occasional surprise rain shower along the way. We covered over one hundred kilometres, but it never felt overwhelming. The days were well paced, and the friendship within the group made everything more enjoyable.

Camping each night brought everyone closer, and there was a real sense of shared experience. Evening beach walks and sea dips, firepits, delicious post-run meals, and plenty of laughter made it feel like an adventure with old friends, even though most of us had only just met.

A special thank you to the crew, who were endlessly kind, incredibly organised, and genuinely good people. They made everything feel smooth and relaxed, even though we could all see how much care and hard work was happening behind the scenes.

It was my first time in Cornwall, and I have enjoyed it so much that I decided to extend my stay to do some solo running. It will not be the same without the group, but I could not resist spending more time in this beautiful part of the country. My legs are a little tired, but my heart is full and my mind is filled with new memories.

If you are thinking about doing this, do it. You will surprise yourself, meet wonderful people, and return home with more than just miles in your legs.

I joined the Run Weekends Cornwall trip and had an amazing time. Nick, Henry and all the crew went above and beyond to make sure we all had the best experience. It was the perfect way to discover Cornwall's stunning scenery with a group of awesome and like-minded people. Everything in this trip embodied what the running community is all about, and I can only recommend them :)!

If your idea of a good holiday is stress free running with like-minded people hosted by a team for whom nothing is too much trouble and having a great time then look no further. Well planned days on a fabulous route, all the ingredients for a brilliant holiday.

Just got back from the Cornwall trip at the beginning of August and safe to say I loved it! I came with 3 friends from my running club and as I was the first to book I felt partly responsible for them to all have a good time. The team delivered so I had nothing to worry about. In fact they went above and beyond what we expected. Nothing was too much trouble, they maintained this the entire trip.

We were very well fed with all needs catered for. The planning was meticulous and the routes were mostly spectacular! We had to make a few diversions but this was all taken care of.

The weather was amazing for the first 2 days and the second 2 days we had all seasons in one go! Nick saved me on day 4 by giving me fresh socks, a vest and some shorts when mine were soaked through which I was very grateful for!

The rest of the team were amazing and so was the group overall. It has given me so much confidence to run further than I think I am capable of! Already thinking about next year’s trip! Thank you to Nick and the team you are the best!! Xx

I joined Run Weekends for the Santiago trip in June 2025. A fantastic life-enriching experience, crossing through stunning scenery with a wonderful group of fun and caring people. Nick & his team take the time to ensure everyone is taken care of, from the pace of the group, to providing regular food & drink stops throughout all of the runs, to chatting and keeping spirits high throughout the weekend. I would highly recommend these trips to all runners who are looking for an adventure, rather than a medal!

Incredible experience in the Dolomites. The team were fantastic, passionate and supportive.

Everything from accommodation, to food, to exciting trails, to photos throughout were thought of.

You get amazing views, hikes and runs whilst having a unique opportunity to meet new people, make friends and have fun together across this 5 night adventure.

A huge thank you to everyone at Run Weekends for making our trip truly special.

Unbelievable trip through the Dolomites with Run Weekends - the group were amazing
